---------------------------------

             Summary: showWebPage() should include CATEGORY_BROWSABLE
                 Key: CB-8588
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB-8588
             Project: Apache Cordova
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: Android
            Reporter: Andrew Grieve
            Assignee: Andrew Grieve
            Priority: Minor


Since this API is meant to simulate what happens when a link is clicked (I 
believe), it should include this category. It's certainly a safer default:

{quote}
     * Activities that can be safely invoked from a browser must support this
     * category.  For example, if the user is viewing a web page or an e-mail
     * and clicks on a link in the text, the Intent generated execute that
     * link will require the BROWSABLE category, so that only activities
     * supporting this category will be considered as possible actions.  By
     * supporting this category, you are promising that there is nothing
     * damaging (without user intervention) that can happen by invoking any
     * matching Intent.
{quote}

If apps want to fire an intent without CATEGORY_BROWSER, they should use a 
custom plugin.
